Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 85: New Research direction

Sam came back to his mansion and changed from the dress which is full of blood stains and tears.

But he didn't throw them away, instead he folded them neatly and stored them inside a spatial ring. He laid down on the bed and went into deep sleep.

At the same time far away from the mansion, somewhere in the northern region. The weird trio sat together in a meeting.

"Did you feel that? Or is it just me?" Yaar asked the remaining two.

"I felt that too."

"Me too."

The remaining two answered.

"Why is that guy's blood l.u.s.t so high? I only felt that from our uncle."

"Yeah, it gave me chills. I thought we are already wild and fierce enough with the amount of our killings. Just how many lives did he take to reach that level." Yash said in a low tone.

"Maybe we should talk to Uncle about our plans on him. "

"I agree."

"Let us do that."

Next day. Sam woke up even before the sun rose.

He ate some breakfast and went over to Watt's room.

"From today onwards, we are going to train together. You might not know, but now I can also use the wind element, but I don't have much practice with it. From today onwards, everyday we will be practicing together and master the wind element to use it in the most optimum way."

Watt nodded without saying anything.

"Then, prepare. We will be leaving to the nearby woods in a while."

An hour later, Sam and Watt came to the nearby woods and they settled at a place where there is enough empty place without any trees.

Falck, Sky and Yanwu are also there and the three of them went into the deeper part of the woods, to hunt.

Sam and Watt stood in front of each other.

"Since you made a contract with Falck, you are a Beast warrior which in some sense are a warrior mage. But you have some inherent difference with a normal warrior mage that is your body's strength doesn't depend on the cultivation process, rather it will depend on the beast you contracted with. So, your body is as strong as Falck's body.

You and Falck are now one. Both of you will grow together and become stronger together.

Now, we are going to train to achieve how to use the spiritual energy just like how a beast does. We will not waste our time on hand seals and chants. In a battle one second is all it takes for your life to leave.

So, we have to master the direct casting of a spell and in this way to you can control the scale, size and the range of the attack all by yourself.

For that we need an absolute control over our body as well as the spiritual energy. Now, look carefully." Sam explained and stretched out his hand. At the end of his hand a small golden flame emerged and Sam started controlling it.

The golden flame turned into the shape of a rabbit, then a pigeon, then a bear, a deer and finally it even changed into a human silhouette.

After that the flame disappeared.

"Your control over your spiritual energy must reach a level, where you could do all the things I did. You have to gain the skills to gain absolute control over your ability."

And if you still can't believe it and wants to know why you should do it. I can show you an example. DO you want to try?" Sam asked.

Watt contemplated for a second before saying. "It is not that I don't believe in you. But I still want to know at what scale the advantage of this free control of the spiritual energy will bring me."

Sam smiled at the answer and said. "Okay, then I will show you. Turn backwards." When Watt turned, Sam walked over and stood beside him before saying.

"I will limit myself to the Level 1 Acolyte. Do you see the two trees over there? You will attack one tree and I will attack another one. We both will see, who did it faster and in a most efficient way. You will cast the wind blade spell or any other spell which you have most confidence in."

Sam said as he pointed at a pair of trees in a distance away from them. Both of them went into positions.

"Start."

As soon as Sam said these words, Jack immediately started making hand seals. His speed is so fast that only after images of his fingers could be seen. When he was about to make the final hand seal, he heard a loud sound of crashing and when he saw in the direction, he saw Sam's tree already crashed down on the ground. Even before he could cast the spell, the other party was already done with the task.

"That is the amount difference you will have." Sam said and stood facing Watt.

"Now, your training will start. You will stand here and use your wind elemental spiritual energy. You will use the smallest amount possible and try to control it. You wouldn't use any hand seals. You will have to control the spread of the energy as well as how it travels in your body to get the desired effects.

The first part of the training is that you have to condense the energy in your palm. You not only have to condense the energy you also have to be able to decide the amount of concentration of energy. When you are finally able to control the concentration of the condensed wind, your first phase of training will be over."

Sam explained everything and left the place. He stood a bit far away from Watt and he too is practicing the condensation of the wind elemental energy. Even though he had experience with using fire elemental energy, it is still a bit difficult. But his spiritual core trait made it easy for him.

By afternoon, Sam already made a lot of progress in controlling the condensation of energy. But Watt isn't in the same situation.

He isn't able to do it at all. All these hours he almost had no progress. All he was able to do was to condense energy in his palm. Any more that is still nigh impossible.

Yanwu along with Sky and Falck are responsible for the lunch. After the meal both Sam and Watt, again went back to practice.

They practiced until evening. Then they went back to the Mansion.

As soon as they arrived, Sam entered his study and then the divine dimension. Now it is time for his research.

He entered the second floor of the tower and took out a normal spirit stone and another spirit stone which is devoid of energy. This is the spirit stone which is used up of all its energy.

Sam started his observation on the normal spirit stone. All he could feel was, the vast amount spiritual energy particles. The spirit stone is the example for Active and stable state of spiritual energy.

Sam increased his concentration and kept on observing the spirit stone in greater detail. Then only he found out something interesting.

The spiritual stone has a small spherical core which is very minute in size at its centre. This small core has some network lines extended from it all over the spirit stone. These lines were just like veins in the body. But instead of the blood, the energy is being transmitted all over the spirit stone.

The network lines are numerous, there are hundreds of these small lines if not thousands. Over the surface of the stone, he noticed that some energy lines came to the end and the spiritual energy is leaking slowly. But the amount is so minute that it will take decades to empty this single stone and that too if the stone didn't absorb the energy from the atmosphere to fill it back.

Then Sam started observing the used spirit stone. In this he discovered something. The core of the stone is still intact, but the energy network lines seemed to be destroyed. The used spirit stone has the network lines which seemed to be torn away forcefully. The stone seemed to be full of holes and he could clearly see the energy that is being collected towards the core immediately drain away.

Sam increased his concentration on the used-up spirit stone and just like he did to metals, he immediately collapsed the structure. A small amount of powder was left in his palm. In the middle of the powder, Sam found out the core which is in the size of small mustard seed.

He again diverted his attention to the normal spirit stone and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He increased his concentration and when he locked his energy on the bondage of the grains in the spirit stone structure, he slowly disrupted it.

Then something unexpected happened. The spiritual energy which is flowing through the energy channels and the core of the stone, immediately lost the channel to transmit but still felt attracted to the core and approached it in a rapid pace.

Sam felt the spiritual energy in the stone become extremely unstable. He immediately threw the stone far away and.

*BOOM*

An explosion happened in the air while the stone is still travelling. When Sam went towards the explosion zone, he felt the spiritual energy in the area was completely unstable and is in excited state. The spiritual energy is in a state of turmoil and completely unsuitable for absorption.

He felt that he was extremely lucky to have escaped the situation. If the stone exploded with in his own hands, he might even have received a severe damage, because his body is also a vessel of spiritual energy and his whole body will also be in turmoil which may even lead to his death.

Sam didn't dare to do the same experiment soon and went back to the powder he obtained from the used-up spirit stone.

When he observed the powder, he didn't feel any properties from it. He felt that it is neither fine nor coarse, it is neither hard nor soft. He didn't even know if it has any weight.

He placed the powder in the smallest cauldron he has and started heating it up. But no matter how much he increased the heat, the powder didn't melt, but it turned into a bit red in colour. Sam felt that the colour was a bit familiar and he thought about it.

After a long while of thinking, he remembered what it is and finally, took out a used-up fire elemental spirit stone.

The stone is also transparent with slight red shade and when he turned it into the powdered state, he understood what happened. The powder in the cauldron is also same as the one in his hand. After sometime, the powder in the cauldron turned back into its previous form without any colour.

All he knew from this is that he can not treat this powder just like he treated metals. And all he got is the fire- resistant property of this powder.

Sam then took out mustard seed sized core. He sat down cross-legged and started injecting the spiritual energy in its neutral form. After a while, the core started glowing. But as soon as he stopped the injection, all the energy immediately came out and the core returned to normal.

Sam heaved a sigh at this.

This is something within his expectations.

He again started injecting but this time, when stopping it, he carefully observed the process and he clearly saw the body of the core releasing the energy as if it was a holed strainer. The energy flowed like water out of it.

Then he understood how the spirit stone sustains.

Basically, after the condensed energy formed in the shape of the core, the energy veins in the stone will form the structure.

The core will be acting as the reservoir as well as junction of all the veins in the stone and it acts just like a human heart.

Just like how a human heart which sustains while pumping the blood to various organs, the core of the stone also circulates the energy in loops with it as a junction and some loops have some alternate branches which will deviate the energy to the external atmosphere.

When someone absorbs the energy from the core from these deviated veins, the heavy flow will tear off the veins and the spirit stone will eventually be used-up and destroyed.

Sam looked at the core and the powder with a look of interest in his eyes.
